This comes in response to a Change.org petition signed by more than 158,000 supporters to keep him away from the UK. The petition reads: "To allow this man into the UK legitimises sexual assault and predation, and sends a message that women are playthings or objects without agency."

And that puts Blanc in an odd spot.

The BBC reports, "banning someone for questionable chat-up techniques is a first ... he finds himself in the same bracket as far right political extremists and those who are a threat to national security."

Blanc joins other recognizable names on the U.K. ban list including NSA-leaker Edward Snowden, Zimbabwe president Robert Mugabe and some more odd names like rapper Snoop Dogg, boxer Mike Tyson and designer Martha Stewart.

Blanc has already been deported and banned from Australia, denied entry into Brazil, and petitions against him entering Canada, Japan and Singapore are also gaining traction.

Just days ago, Blanc sat down with CNN's Chris Cuomo where he apologized, referring to much of the questionable social media posts and pictures of him circulating as poor attempts at humor.

"I just want to apologize to anybody I've offended in any way ... Again, horrible attempt at humor, just wanted to produce a shock, which it did, but for all the wrong reasons," Blanc said.
